It is done, but should be left to those who know what they are doing. It is necessary to know all the ancestors in the line to avoid getting negative traits.

From what I understand IN breeding is mother to son, father to daughter sister to brother. line breeding skips a generation
This is also the information I have read. You really should really be well educated about genetics, breeding and the full line of pedigree in the dogs that you are considering to be in this breeding program. You could really end up with some unintended heartaches.
